Jesus touches every stage of our human lives.

At Holy Trinity, other rites of passage mark milestones in our life in Christ, like…

• Confirmation seals our mature recommitment to the Christ we met in baptism.

• Marriage blesses two to become one in their pursuit of following Jesus within the framework of singular committed companionship and faithful family life.

• Ordination marks people for leadership and service as clergy among their fellow Christians within the church.

• Ministration to the Sick brings holy healing, hope, and uplift to the ill.

• Reconciliation of a Penitent gives us opportunity to unburden our conscience with assurance of God’s forgiveness. (The Anglican attitude to this form of confession: “All may, some should, none must.”)

• Burial of the Dead ushers our siblings into God’s Sabbath rest at the end of earthly life, because “alive or dead, we still belong to the Lord.” ①

These rites bear witness that no part of the human experience remains untouched by God in Christ Jesus.

① Romans 14:8 (Contemporary English Version)
